I have been beating my head around this one; the examples provided in the PHP client library under "apps" shows how to use the apiHttpRequest class to make HTTP request to the Provisioning API. The example shows how to list and delete a user in a domain (that is apps enabled) but I am having a had time understanding how to POST to the provision API (feeds) because I will like to programatically create groups using the apiHttpRequest. Any help on this will be highly appreciated!
I have include a code sample for deleting a user
// Deleting a User Alias from a Domain (Experimental)
$domain = "example.com";
$user = rawurlencode("user#domain.com");
$req = new apiHttpRequest("https://apps-apis.google.com/a/feeds/alias/2.0/$domain/$user", 'DELETE');
$resp = $client::getIo()->authenticatedRequest($req);
print "<h1>Deleting a User Alias from a Domain</h1>: <pre>" . $resp->getResponseBody() . "</pre>";
Oh! I see, one has to create an Atom XML mockup and pass it as a string. Is there a more elegant way of handling this? We are not using Zend and so we have to create this ourselves.

I am a completely new in Magento. I can say that i am not much familiar with file structure and flow also. My current task is rest web-service.
These steps i have followed.
I have created role and user in system > webservice. and also created key and secret key.
Than i am hitting this url
www.my-magento-store.com/api/rest/products
But still its showing me 404 Page not found. Any one can tell me step by step process with folder structure, how can i use already provided rest api service and how can i create new service. Treat me as fresher.
Please excuse me for bad English. Thank You.
$proxy = new SoapClient('http://magentohost/api/soap/?wsdl');
$sessionId = $proxy->login('apiUser', 'apiKey');
$allCategories = $proxy->call($sessionId, 'category.tree'); // Get all categories.
Run this from your root of magento you will get the result.
I'm using WWW::Mechanize. For the methods that do not require authentication, I get those as I would any other url, and then use the perl JSON module to parse out whatever data I want:
my $response = $mech->get('http://api.stackexchange.com/1.1/questions?fromdate=' . $lasthour)
my $q = from_json($response->content())
I've used Mechanize to log into websites in the past, but the Oauth stuff is confusing, and what documentation is provided for using the API suggests that it is intended for web applications (that require registration with StackExchange?).
In particular, I am interested in the notifications method though I would expect the correct code to allow access to any of the auth-required methods.
Have you looked at Net::StackExchange2?
#for methods that require auth.
my $se = Net::StackExchange2->new(
{
site=>"stackoverflow",
access_token => '<THE ACCESS TOKEN>' ,
key => '<YOUR APP KEY>'
}
);
It uses LWP::UserAgent. Even if you don't want to use the Net::StackExchange2 module directly, you have a good chance of finding some good example code to borrow from.
Lately I've been using cURL to post data back from a custom Magento controller to a custom page on the same website.
However, the way I do it somehow breaks Magento's log in data. So I've tried another way. Magento has cURL functionality built into it (Varien_Http_Adapter_Curl).
I've tried to Post through this, but so far it has been over my head and documentation on the web is fairly sparse. I need help with this. I've got a string with all the $_POST data ready to go. Please can someone tell me how to send it?
This:
$url="<URL>";
$curl = new Varien_Http_Adapter_Curl;
$curl->setConfig(array('timeout' => 15));
$curl->write(Zend_Http_Client::POST,$url, '1.1', array(), $poststring);
$result = $curl->read();
$curl->close();
...isn't sending data .
Edit:
I've tried the non-Magento cURL, but didn't know about session Data. I still have no Idea how to send session data, either.
Now, I've tried session variables, but the result is that I can set and extract data on one page, but when changing pages the data is lost. So, this can't be used currently between the controller and view.
better you can use the magento sessions
http://magento-rohan.blogspot.in/2012/03/magento-get-set-unset-session.html
here is this how to use it
You need to give us more information about what are you trying to achieve. Basically you need to tell us where are you sending POST request to? Perhaps another Magento instance or even same Magento website? Are you expecting user to have same session it is having now? Once you give us more info I will edit my answer. For now I will try to guess what is bothering you based on the input you gave.
When you are submitting POST request with curl from server side, that means that user is no longer interacting with the "page" you are trying to submit post request to.
If user is not interacting with it, that means it is not sending user session information.
Basically it looks like this:
Normally
Eric ->(Request with session info)-> Server (Oh it's you Eric, here is
the response just for you)
What are you trying to do
Eric ->(Request with session info)-> Server ->(Request without session
info)-> Server (This server doesn't know about Eric)
So to implement this correctly, if I am good at assuming what is your problem, just pass session information to the second server along with your request.
I will add more info if you tell me I am on the good track of understanding your problem.
---UPDATE---
You didn't explain your situation well. I am telling you this because your whole approach with the cURL may be bad decision from the start. For example, if you are trying to execute code in the same Magento codebase and that code is trapped inside some controller, perhaps you can refactor your code and encapsulate that logic inside some model and execute it directly.
But here is the example of passing session information over curl in plain php:
$strCookie = 'PHPSESSID=' . $_COOKIE['PHPSESSID'] . '; path=/';
curl_setopt( $curl, CURLOPT_COOKIE, $strCookie );
Cookie should perhaps be called "frontend" in Magento. And I checked Varien_Http_Adapter_Curl it doesn't have any method for seting CURLOPT_COOKIE option so I suggest you go with plain curl setup. You also have an option to extend adapter and add that option by your self. Just override "_applyConfig" method.
I want to get the values of all custom fields for a particular JIRA issue using SOAP API. I have a custom field named 'Phase' having value Decision Pending for a JIRA issue JIRA-123.
I am using JIRA 5.1.3.
I am able to get all the properties of JIRA issue using SOAP API except the value of the custom field for above issue.
I tried following code, but I am not able to use ComponentManager in my code
IssueManager issueManager = ComponentManager.getInstance().getIssueManager();
CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentManager.getInstance().getCustomFieldManager();
Issue issue = issueManager.getIssueObject("JIRA-123");
CustomField customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Phase");
Object customFieldValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField);
I would highly appreciate if anyone can provide correct approach.
The SOAP API is deprecated by 5.1.3. I suggest you use the REST API - it is both more easy to use and implement.
What is REST?: read here. The basic idea is to bind HTTP request types to actions, it's quite obvious - check this table for a quick run-in.
Jira has a powerful REST API that you can use. This is the main documentation of the current release.
What do you need to do in some high-level steps?:
Set-Up some type of authentication with your JIRA instance. Be it:
Baisc - example
OAuth - example
Get a list of all fields via the API:
The /rest/api/2/field' [method returns a list of all fields][6] - both System and Custom.
Then when you identify the exact field use/rest/api/2/customFieldOption/{id}` to get the full
representation of the Custom Field Option.
I recommend you use a tools like Chrome REST Console ,or anything similar that you can easily make requests with, to get to know the API. The bonus is that you don't need to setUp authentication if you're logged in through the same browser. Your user will require full admin access though.
This is the root of all JIRA REST API docs. Check it out.
If you're doing this in PHP I would personally recommend using some kind of library. I've used
Guzzle (in a CakePHP environment) for this exact task and it turned out very well.
I'm not sure of how do you use the soap API, here is example of using it via the PHP-SOAP:
#!/usr/bin/php -q
<?php
$soapClient = new SoapClient("https://jira.com/rpc/soap/jirasoapservice-v2?wsdl");
$token = $soapClient->login('user', 'password');
$myIssue = $soapClient->getIssue($token,"TES-13");
print_r($myIssue); // all of the issue details
print_r($myIssue->customFieldValues); // get all custom fields
foreach ($myIssue->customFieldValues as $customFieldValue) {
// search for the right custom field
if ($customFieldValue->customfieldId == 'customfield_10402') {
echo $customFieldValue->values[0];
die();
}
}
?>
In case you want to use any other API, have a look at the JIRA Remote API Reference.
A remark regarding the REST and SOAP APIs -To quote from Jira's site the SOAP API "Supported but no future development". The Rest API is still a bit new and there are things you can't yet do with the REST API (example), and can be done easily using the SOAP API.
Working from the Bugzilla API, I've written a quick Perl script to clone a Bugzilla Product (recreating all the Components under their new Product). The Bugzilla Perl API is quite easy to use from the command line. I could have just worked on the database directly, but I wanted a longer-term solution. Another option was the webservice, but I thought I'd try using the API directly this time.
The one problem I'm running into is authenticating as my Bz admin user so I can create the new components. Looking at Bugzilla's Bugzilla.pm file, I see that they just run login() from a Bugzilla::Auth object. I'm not sure how to get the username and password in there. I suppose I could just add the script to the Bugzilla admin interface...
Can any of you point me in the right direction?
Oh, I'm being rather ignorant today, I focused on "web services" and didn't understand what you really wanted.
If you're just using the API to communicate with the database (as opposed to manipulating the database directly), do you really need to authenticate as any user at all?
In the 3.2 source tree, look at merge-users.pl for instance, which uses Bugzilla::User objects. Couldn't you do the same with Bugzilla::Component?
You should also look at sanitycheck.pl, which uses Bugzilla->set_user.
There's been some significant upgrades in the web services capabilities since 3.2, can you upgrade?
In 3.6 at least, check out contrib/bz_webservice_demo.pl for how to use the User.login method.
http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/tip/en/html/api/Bugzilla/WebService/User.html
The following code snippet might enter the question.
Here we check also that the user has the correct "editcomponents" credential.
my $user = new Bugzilla::User({ name => $login })
|| ThrowUserError('invalid_username', { name => $login });
# Authenticate using this user account.
Bugzilla->set_user($user);
$user->in_group('editcomponents')
|| ThrowUserError("auth_failure", {group => "editcomponents",
action => "add",
object => "products"});
